Military’s #1 Streaming Service Adds Beloved Podcast from JDog Brands to Platform
SAN DIEGO, March 8, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
A podcast focusing on the stories of veterans and military spouses – and the keepsakes that made a difference in their lives – is the subject of the newest podcast, now available on VET Tv’s streaming platform.
Tactical Treasures, a podcast produced by JDog Brands, gives veterans and spouses the chance to talk about objects, lessons, and moments in their lives that they turned into the ‘tactical treasures’ in their military career, business, or life. The show’s host is Tracy “Mrs. JDog” Flanagan, the co-founder of JDog Brands.
“VET Tv has always prided itself on authentic storytelling,” said Waco Hoover, VET Tv’s CEO. “Tactical Treasures gives our audience a chance to meet a mix of big names and people you’ve never heard of – and hear compelling and impactful stories you won’t get elsewhere.”
Flanagan is no stranger to the veteran ecosystem and those that occupy it. Since co-founding JDog Brands with her husband, Army veteran Jerry “JDog” Flanagan, in 2011, Tracy founded and leads the JDog Spouses, a support community that provides advice, resources, and other ways to balance family while growing a JDog Brands business. She’s also a mentor for AMPLIFY, the Military Spouse Program through Hiring Our Heroes.
“I’m really happy to expand Tactical Treasures to the VET Tv audience,” Flanagan said. “I’ve found such joy in gaining insight into our wonderful guests and the things they hold dear, and I know VET Tv’s audience will too.”
Past guests on the podcast include: Former CIA director and retired 4-star general David Petraeus; U.S. Army Ranger legend Matt Eversmann of “Black Hawk Down” fame; Mark Harper, CEO of We Are The Mighty; and Tim Jensen, the chief brand officer and co-owner of GruntStyle.
All episodes are available on VET Tv’s “Tactical Treasures” page now, with new episodes released on a weekly basis.
